Welco
me to the carpal tunnel and wrist pain relief center of Dr. Noam Sadovnik, NYC Chiropractor, specializing in cold laser therapy for the relief of carpal tunnel and wrist pain.Carpal tunnel syndrome is a conditon of the wrist where the median nerve become compressed or entrapped in the ‘carpal tunnel’ and leads to wrist pain, swelling, numbness, tingling, burning and sometimes more sever symptoms. More often then not there is some aggravating factor the contributes to the condition by way of repetitive stress.
Often times people who have job requirements that lead to the same repetitious motion at the wrist can exacerbate of cause this type of presentation. Constant use of the keyboard or mouse in a less then ideal position can lead to inflammation and pain.
In some rare cases that haven’t responded to conventional therapy or even surgery there is the possibility that a more complex condition such as double crush syndrome exists.
In either case it’s important that you be properly evaluated to determine the cause so that the most appropriate treatment course can be determined for you.
Dr. Noam Sadovnik has been successfully treating carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist pain and double crush syndrome in Manhattan, NYC for over 5 years now. He is on the independant educational advisory board at irradia usa and lectures around the country educating other practitioners on the proper diagnosis, management and application of cold laser therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome and wrist pain.
As you can see in the picture to the left the carpal tunnel contains the median nerve and a number of other anatomical structures. The transverse ligament, the one cut in surgery, is not usually the offending structure – however – surgeons will cut this ligament in an effort to relieve the pressure on the median nerve and create more space.
The problem with this approach is that it only relieves the symptoms and in many cases the symptoms return in spite of having undergone invasive surgery. If the biomechanics of the wrist are abnormal, or in any joint for that matter, this leads to increased friction, which leads to heat production. Heat leads to inflammation and inflammation is ultimately what causes pain.
If you want to relieve symptoms, and correct the cause, you need to address all aspects that may not be readily apparent upon initial examination. Correcting biomechanics along with treating the inflammation and irritation of the nerve with cold laser therapy has helped thousands of New York City residents recover from carpal tunnel syndrome and wrist pain with the help of Dr. Noam Sadovnik.
